Safety and health assurance may be increased by standardizing the process of reviewing and approving DSAs and TSRs. Although complete standardization of the process (e.g., standardized review plan) requires substantial commitments and is complicated by the diversity of facility operations throughout the DOE complex, certain benefits are gained
by standardizing fundamental elements of the review and approval process. To that end, the Standard establishes DOE guidelines for the review and approval of these documents, including preparation of SERs, for nuclear facilities.

This volume contains the appendices that provide additional environment, safety and health (ES&H) information to complement Volume 1 of this Standard. Volume 2 of the Standard is much broader in scope than Volume 1 and satisfies several purposes. Integrated safety management expectations are provided in accordance with facility disposition requirements contained in DOE O 430.1B, Real Property Asset Management. Additionally, the collection of appendices in Volume 2 provides guidance that supplements various safety basis practices described in Volume 1. Since Volume 2 has a broader focus than safety basis requirements, it applies to all phases of facility disposition (i.e., facility deactivation,
surveillance and maintenance, and decommissioning).
